Hi all, I'm Dan. I'm not exactly a martial artist since I haven't even decided what MA I would like to join. Live in Sydney Australia, a full time university student and part time video rental clerk.

I decided to learn MA this summer (It is summer here and steaming) but still not sure what I would like to learn. Well I know I like kungfu but still deciding either Wing Chun or Choy Lee Fut. But well, I would have some introductory lessons in two different schools next week. So I'm really exited.

The reason is because I'm really out of shape ( haven't done ANY exercise for the last 3 years) and learn self defence (found out being a video rental clerk is actually guite dangerous here).

How-dee. There are reputable Muay Thai gyms in areas of Australia. Don't rule it out. But Kung-Fu and W.C. look awesome! Welcome to the board and good luck!

Muay Thai eh?? I heard the kicks are pretty nasty. Well if Kungfu doesn't work guess I'll give it a try.

Thanks all.

Welcome to Martial Talk, Dan!! I hope you find the right style for you.

Any style is good as long as you find the right instructor but some styles are better suited to our individual tastes than others. Good luck on your search!

Welcome Dan! :wavey: Whatever you decide choose a style that suits you and most importantly find an instructor you can learn from! :)

Maybe someone can teach you how to toss the videos in self defense! :lol:

Hello, Welcome and enjoy the site!! Remember learning to fight is not the answer.


Always trust your instincts if something does not feel right? (Awareness)

Best be the (act)coward and live to see tomorrow. Videos can be replace...you have only one body and life...........Aloha
